It's a Boy!


Mr. D and I had a gender reveal party this past weekend and enjoyed sharing the gender of our baby with our close friends! During the party we handed out to our guests white cupcakes that were filled with the gender-revealing color. I had a lot of fun biting into the cupcake alongside everyone else and seeing the blue color hidden inside representative of a boy!

We are planning to name him after his grandpa on my husband’s side.

A few weeks ago Mr. D and I took a trip to Las Vegas to visit Mr. D’s family and we shared with his grandpa that if we had a boy we would name our boy after him. Mr. D’s grandpa was pretty excited when called him a week later to tell him that we found out we were having a boy and that he would have a great-grandchild to share his name.

Overall we’ve enjoyed all the love and support we’ve received from our friends and family. We hope we are up to the task of becoming parents and are looking forward to the big life transition.

Camping Adventure at Penrose Point State Park

This past weekend Mr. D and I went camping at Penrose Point State Park with a family we have been friends with for almost three years! We decided to carpool there together with our camping gear and all seven of us in their van. After we got there, we made hotdogs for dinner, s’mores and cobbler for dessert, and enjoyed spending time together in front of the campfire. The following morning we walked over to the water and had fun discovering crabs in the rocks. Here are some of the photos from the trip: Checking out an alive sand dollar  Looking for crabs on the water  Crazy tree and roots This was the website we used to book the reservation: https://washington.goingtocamp.com/PenrosePointStatePark -Mr. D and Mrs. M

Neil's friends visit

  Our friends from Seattle were in town visiting for a work conference in Park City and they stopped by our home and stayed with us for a day. We loved seeing them and getting to have our boys play together. There was a lot to do at our home-- play with legos, practice baseball, enjoy the chickens, and read together. Hope to have them visit again next time they are here for a work trip or to ski. 

Camping

This past weekend our family got to go camping with cousins, and we had a great time.  We live in Highland Utah, which is near the American Fork Canyon entrance. We chose to go to the Timpooneke campsites, which is really close to us. We went there a couple times last year. The campsites are really nice. At each campsite is a concrete slab with a fire pit and picnic table, as well as flat ground to place your tent (plus walkable to drinking water, an outhouse, etc.).  We went with David's sister's family and the kids loved gathering around the fire, playing games, and exploring together. We even got to take our paddle boards out to Tibble Fork Reservoir. Here are photos from our trip: Campground link:  https://www.recreation.gov/camping/campgrounds/231938
